soendant of the Clay family, branch
Of the Bashaw breed Of horses, (the

most excellent stock horse. In the

Tae EEOtEler Wants Her ]

Written for the HERALD.
The lIOtE,er Wants Her Boy.
There's homestead waiting for my boy
In quaint Ola -fashione town;
The gray moss clings to the garden wall,
And the dwelling is low and brown;
But a vacant char by the hreside stands,
And never grace is said,
But Il mother prays that her absent son
Soon may be homeward led.
FOR the mother wants her boy.
She trains the vines and tends the fiow crs,
For she says, "Afy boy viii come;
And want the quiet, humble place
TO be just like the dear old home
That it seemed when he, agentle lad,
Used to pluck the orchards gold,
And gather the roses and lilies tale,
Far more than his hands could hold;
And still want my boy"
How well she knows the worry place
Where you played at hat ana ball,
And the violet cap you wore to school
Still hangs on its hook in the hall.
And when the twilight hour draws near
She steals down the lane,
10 cOSSctI inc lalIlD5 you uSeu 10 peJ,
And dream you were home again;
For the mother wants her boy.
She is growing old, and her eyes arc dim
With watching day by day,
For the childi en- uurture1 at her breast
lave slipped from her arms away.
Alone ana lonely she names the hours
AS the dear ones come ana go;
Their coming she calls"The time FLOWERS"
Their going 1.-THE hours of snow"
And ever she wants her boy.
Walk on, toll on, give strength and mind
70 the task in your chosen place,
But never forget the dear old home,
And the mothers loving face.
Youmay count your blessings score and score
You may heap your golden grain,
But remember when her gray Is made,
Your coming will be in vain.
Ills now she wants her boy.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered
liver is misery. Indigestion is foe to
good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is
one of the most complicated and won
derfui things in existence. til easily
put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food,
bad cookery, mental worry. late hours,
irregular habits, and many other things
which ought not to be, have made the
American people a nation of dyspep-
tics.
But Green's August Flower has done
q wonderful work in reforming this sad
business and making the American peo-
pie so healthy that they can enjoy their
meals and be happy.
Remember:No happiness without
health. But GREEN'S August Flower
brings health and happiness to the dys-
peptic. Ask your druggist for bottle.
